[Q] Voice Search - Acer Iconia A700 and A510

It always concerns me when issues such as this just "fix themselves" but this is exactly what has happened to me here.
Maybe a temporary glitch in Goggle's cloud this morning.
Never mind...
For some reason, I can't get voice search to work on this tablet.
I can record and playback my voice using the "Recorder" app.
So my microphone and speaker hardware is OK.
I can see the mic level working when I try to speak into the search box.
It's as if the voice sample isn't being sent to the cloud or I have an app missing.
Any ideas? Anyone else have his working or not?
This is on a brand-new, non rooted US A700.
Build Acer_AV043_A700_1.017.00_PA_CUS1

So.. I plugged my Headphones that include a Mic that i got with my phone into the audio jack and do another test.. and everything is clear.
This is stupid ..I wonder if anyone has a fix for this.
Think Any of the CM 10.1 Daily's have fixed this issue?
This is the main reason why I dont run CM10. I havent found a fix other then using a headset or bluetooth with skype. Once there is a fix I will sure return to CM10

[Q] Audio Routing issue with microphone

I have an app that calls the AudioSystem class (android.media.AudioSystem) using reflection. All methods are static and no instantiation of the AudioSystem class occurs.
The method used in AudioSystem is setDeviceConnectionState.
The code also will call AudioManager methods like: audioManager().setSpeakerphoneOn(false);
What I have noticed is that a few people running stock 4.1.1 have contacted me stating that apps like Google Now, Voice Search, Camcorder will no longer work, when my app is running. I remember that Cyanogenmod had some issues with Google Now, and Voice Search and was wondering if anyone had some ideas as to what I should look at.
I know that as of 4.2 all of the microphone input constants for setDeviceConnectionState have changed, but these users are running 4.1.1.
The big problem is that I can't reproduce the issue. As you know emulators aren't much good when debugging audio issues.
Thanks in advance !

[Q] Nexus 5 w/ OmniROM + franco mic issue only during call

Hey guys. I'm having an issue with my microphone during calls. People say that they hear me very soft, as if I'm on speaker phone and far away. Other times they can't hear me at all, just a lot of weird interference. I tried calling myself using a VOIP app and left myself a voicemail and I can't hear a thing regardless if I'm using speakerphone or not.
There is NO problem when I'm on a call using bluetooth in the car. There is no problem when I use any voice recording/google now/swype voice recognition type app. Video recordings also work fine.
I'm using the latest OmniROM with Franco.Kernel. I can confirm that the problem also persists when I use the OmniROM kernel.
Could this be a software issue? I'm concerned because my screen has a crack in it and I'm not sure if Google/LG will cover a microphone issue under warranty because of the cracked screen. (I can also confirm that this problem existed BEFORE the phone fell causing the cracked screen).

So I confirmed that this is not a software issue. I went back to stock everything and the problem persists. I opened it up to see if I could do anything to the mic itself, but it's attached to the board and there was nothing I could do. At this point I have a phone with a disfunctional microphone and a voided warranty due to a cracked screen. This sucks. Is there any software that will let me switch which microphone is used during calls? Again, the mic that is used for voice recognition and video recording and google now and voice recording and all that stuff works. The only mic that doesn't work is the bottom mic during calls. Can I switch it so that calls go through the other mic? it won't be perfect, but better than nothing.

Voice control issue

Hi,
I just got my Honor 8 and I have encountered problem with voice control. Wake up word works fine, but if I try to follow with command "where are you" or "Call someone" it does not react.
Qucik call - pressing volume down and saying "Call someone" works ok.
I have tried to disable Google app, but it didn't help. Tried to find other solutions, but there is nothing.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot
Are you having problems with camera app as well pop up that says audio.google.searchbox. I'm also disappointed I can't see a way to fix this.
When OK Google detection is turned on it does this with a lot of apps.
Hello.
I think there are 2 competing voice control systems on the device. The phones voice control and googles. Am I right? Does anyone know how theese work together e.g. do you have to choose wich one to use whereas the otherone will be disabled? In the beginning my local voice control worked fine but after turning on google voice control ("ok google") the local system started erroring. When trying to configure voice control i get a message "HiVoice Is currently recording audio. com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox:interactor will not be able to record right now".
Any ideas whats going on?
I tried disabling Ok Google, but it doesn't work I switched to using Ok Google instead as this one works fine

Samsung galaxy s8 plus audio problem during videocalls

Hello!
I have a major issue during videocalls using google duo, skype where if there are any background noise around me, i can't hear the person i am talking to. The audio cuts off. It has to be silent around me in order for me to hear the person i am talking to. Is there any fix to this problem? I have already reset the phone but the problem is still there.
mic (over) sensitivity? perhaps some will stop by and know the file and file entry to edit.
any of this type setting elsewhere (Settings, the app itself, and sound modification yo have installed, eg Viper, etc... that you can check/get to?
I have no sound modification installed. I checked the settings but there seems to be no part adressing this issue. The same problem happens when i use different apps like skype, google duo and signal. Could it be a hardware problem? The microphone works fine when i record a video or recording audio.
Maybe.
Rooted? If so, and you've done a full, clean install, and sure that the install is working ok, maybe try another custom ROM.
Normal calls work, as I get you it's (just) video calls? Another possibility, I'd consider looking up mic sensitivity and ways to decrease it. On the OnePlus One I am aware there was a configuration file folks could mess with to try and resolve that phone's mics over sampling. That was a common issue for many.
Have you tried turning the volume down and see if that has any effect?
Wish I could offer more ideas, I have used video calls maybe 3 times in 8 years.
The phone is not rooted. This problem occurs only when i use internet based videocalls (skype, google duo). The volyme is not usually high when i call. Thank you for your time, hopefully i will find a solution soon.
Frustrating. Good luck.
